Leslie first gives her take on today's latest political news in her 'Ripped from the Headlines' segment.

Here are the stories that she covered:

1. AXIOS: "Biden to sign executive order aimed at lowering drug costs"

2. WASHINGTON POST: "Judge bucks Trump, orders Pence aide to testify to Jan. 6 grand jury"

3. AXIOS: "FBI official was warned some agents were "sympathetic" to Capitol rioters"

4. CNN: "In near unanimous vote, European lawmakers call for Russia to be declared a "terrorist" regime"

5. AXIOS: "Raleigh, North Carolina, shooting leaves at least 5 people dead"

6. AXIOS: "Texas sheriff declares Martha's Vineyard migrants crime victim"

During the second half of the show, Leslie is joined by Melissa Jo Peltier.
Melissa is an Author and award winning filmmaker who has won two Emmys for News and Documentary, produced "Dog Whisperer" with Cesar Millan, which was on the National Geographic Channel in primetime for seven seasons, and perhaps most famously, originally discovered Nia Vardalos and the script for "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," before selling it to Tom Hanks' production company.
Her film "The Game Is Up," helped Joe Biden win in 2020 by creating a "permission structure" for Republicans in swing states to reject Donald Trump--by interviewing everyone from prominent conservatives, like Joe Walsh, to everyday Republicans who'd had enough.

During today's interview, Leslie and Melissa discuss the film, and how it is still very relevant and now applies to the upcoming Midterm Elections.

Melissa also shares what the disillusioned Trump voters featured in her documentary all have in common.

Melissa's Twitter handle is @MelissaJPeltier and her website is TheGameIsUpMovie.com.
